New YORK, Fen. II The advance in
the stock market met with check to-
day for the first time this week, but the
losses in the general list were insignif-
cant and occurred mostly at the opening.
The selling for the day was almost en-
tirely of professional character. The
fluctuations were confined within mar
row range for all except two or toree
stocks. Coal stocks were prominent, but
their movements were feverish and
irregular. Prices were extremely well
held until Just previous to the close when
realizations again sagged prices off and
the final figures were either at or 3 little
better than the lowest of the day. The
opening was decidedly weak, the decline
from last nights prices ranging up to I,
latter in Missouri, Kansas and Texas.
The market recovered slowly, subject to
frequent slight reactions, and the volume
of business steadily decreased up to l
O'Clock when prices were almost
universally a fraction better
the market began to yield, and in
the last hour became decidedly weak, de-
clines being then recovered. There were
then slight rallies, but the mar ket closed
heavy.
The New York bond market showed
considerably less animation, and the deal
ings were confined to q smaller number
of issues than usual OF late. The market
was strong in the forenoon, and heavy
later, though the final prices generally
show advances. The sales were Sl.S45,-

A NARROW ESCAPE.

Through a Bridge.

An Ohio Night Express Comes Near Going
Through a Bridge.
CLEVELAND, OHIO, Feb. ia bad
railroad smash-up occurred this morning
about l O'Clock on the Cleveland and
Pittsburg Railroad, Just south of the city
limits. A bridge gave way under an ex-
press train, but luckily go lives were lost.
The night express on the Cleveland and
Pittsburg Road left the Union depot on
time. Shortly after midnight it met with
q disaster at bridge No. 2. The bridge
was of iron, about sixty feet long and
eighteen feet above the water. Heavy
rains had swollen the creek, and
it is supposed the food had under
mined the stone abutments. When the
locomotive struck the bridge the en-
gineer felt it tremble. He passed over 1t
in safety, however, and the baggage and
express cars went over the shsky struc-
ture without accident. The smoking csr
had only got fairly upon the bridge when
it sagged downward, and with a sudden
shock the train was brought to stand
still Had the train been running at its
regular rate of speed a terrible disaster
would have occurred, but the engineer
was going cautiously on account OF the
flooded condition q the country. The
sudden jerk threw the locomotive, Dag
gage aud express cars over on their sides
into ditch. TIE tender remained on
the track. The smoking car was caught
fast between the abutments and
held partly by the debris of the bridge
remained midway between the water and
the level of the track. Only one passen-
ger and the brakeman were in it, and they
succeeded in climbing out without in
Jury. The first truck of the passenger
car went over the edge OF the abutment
and rolled upon the end Of the smoker
1t contained fifteen people, four of whom
were ladies. Beyond q general shaking
up and bad scare no damage was done
them. Just after the accident a fire
broke out among some waste in one cor
ner of the baggage car, but it was quickly
extinguished. The tracks are now clear.

A Toronto Express Train Becomes Unman

OTTAWA, ONT, Feb. 1.-THE Toronto
express had a narrow escape from de-
struction Wednesday night. On long
down grade near Ivanhoe the train was
under full Roadway when the bar of the
engine b oke. The broken piece went
whirling around at q fearful rate, smash
ing the cab into splinters. A moment
later the other side bar broke,
throwing the engine off the
track. The train was moving
at the rate of forty miles an hour and the
engineer was unable to control it, as he
could not reach the air brakes. Without
losing moment he rushed over the
tender to the platform of the first car,
and leaning down under the car cut the
tubing of the air brake with his knife.
The brakes then set themselves and the
train was stopped. No one was hurt.
